The 230SL had a difficult start in 1963, as it had two totally different parents: the iconic 300SL and the more affordable 190SL. Plus it was given a design with its unusual roof that did not suit everyone initially. Today the W113 is an icon in itself and famous mostly due to its pagoda-style roof. It was the first car in the history of mercedes-benz that offered speed, comfort, reliability and quality in a sports car at a somewhat affordable price.
